About Gillian Avin

Professional Specialty

Born and raised in Southeastern Connecticut, I bring a love of New England and a decade of real estate experience to current and future homeowners. I am a proud, 2001 graduate of the University of Connecticut, holding a BS in Business Administration with an emphasis in Sales and Marketing. This strong foundation, combined with the desire to create personal connections, has allowed me to build a successful real estate business primarily grown through referrals. I'm dedicated to exceeding your expectations through top-notch customer service. My team sets the bar by promoting excellence through integrity, professionalism, industry knowledge, and communication. You'll appreciate authentic, fast communication across a myriad of preferred channels. I will take the time to carefully listen to your wants and needs and formulate a success strategy to accomplish all of your dreams. By staying ahead of new technology and emerging trends in all media platforms, you'll be armed with an arsenal of tools to flourish in this competitive market. As a Navy spouse for over 19 years, I am a proud supporter of our military families. I have a personal understanding of the unique lifestyle and many challenges you may encounter, as well as a sense of responsibility to help you achieve your homeownership goals. To better assist my clients, I hold the NAR designation of Military Relocation Professional (MRP) and the USA Cares certification Military Housing Specialist. Real estate doesn't need to be complicated. I've adopted a stress-free approach by breaking down the homeownership process into simple, manageable steps. Best of all, I'm here to guide and support you through the entire process from start to finish. It may not always be the right time to buy or sell, but it is always the right time to prepare. Call today to discuss the next chapter of your journey and the steps that will take you there. Please allow me the privilege of serving all of your real estate needs.
